There are clear provisions in this property management regulation. If the leakage of external wall belongs to the time limit for a project, the responsibility lies with the construction party and the development unit. If the maintenance period is exceeded, the property can complete minor repairs by itself. If the amount of work is too large and too much money is needed, it is necessary to hold a general meeting of all owners, and more than two-thirds of the owners agree to use the residential maintenance fund for maintenance. The maintenance of external walls of houses belongs to the maintenance of public areas. During the warranty period, the property will contact the developer for quality assurance. After the warranty period, the property company will organize maintenance and apply for public maintenance funds. If it is within the warranty period of the developer, the cost shall be borne by the developer in full, and the specific maintenance shall be undertaken by the property management company; Beyond the warranty period of the developer, it belongs to the public part, and the property management company is responsible for the specific maintenance with the owner's public maintenance fund.
